The screenshot shows another ship nearby so it does not look like they spawned on their own. I've had games in a Colorado where I was bottom tier and really did spawn on my own with the ships that spawned in the middle all going for the other flank. So, I slowly sailed towards them but got focused down by 5 or 6 ships - it did not end well.

Just wait until subs are added and DDs are expected to do even more.

As Claus Kellerman would say "no fun for you"... I think the only way to survive is to 'blob up' with some other ships and use the combined AA to take down more planes. It sounds like using tactics.......

According to to the spreadsheet...........

I've seen players in the sole top tier BB in a co-op battle (for instance Tirpitz or Kii) on North that immediately sail for the island that is towards the back of the map and sit behind it the whole game (they do fire when things get in range). Such players deserve to be reported. I know it's co-op but when there are a few such players on the team and they are in the 'best' ships on the team that is how co-op battles get lost.

First world problems? You can always sell it but it may re-appear in a container at some point in the future - so hang onto it so that will never happen again! I sold a Krasny Kreme once and it turned up again like a bad penny. It stays in port now except for 'snowflake' like events.

As I have them all already I'm hoping for some dubloons.

I asked someone on the forum the same thing a year or so ago! When you press ESC to quit the game look in the top left hand corner of the screen with the exit game menu. It shows version, server and # of players. Not a logical place to put it though.

i would think that if there was an outage it would have affected everyone. I'm not sure if the 4K is low for this time of day - sometimes if there has been an outage the numbers drop for a period (as players do other things and not hang around for the game to come back unless there is a mission about to expire and they need to complete it). It could have just been a swift server restart or outage.

I just logged in and there were just under 4k players 'in-game'.

Yes, I saw that (see above). I cant recall changing that to allow downloads so it may be the default setting.

If you're using the Wargamming Game Centre (their launcher) it can do it automatically. There is a setting that allows games to be downloaded in advance.

Well, hopefully once you've downloaded the patch the additional download would be small by comparison. I've played games in the past where it's taken half a day to download an update and then apply the patch before I could play a game - mind you that was probably a long time ago before broadband internet.

Either select 'reset all' or click the icon on the left (the one that looks like a white wine glass) and you can change it to the filter you want.

You in-port filter is V-VIII ships. The ones greyed out are all under TV..... Edited: Maybe it's too early in the morning to spot that. Never play without a 'morning start-up' whatever that may be.

Nah, then it would not qualify for so many missions - so T5 at least (with preferential MM, of course).

It sounds like your computer may have a heating problem or maybe even a memory problem. Post your PC specs (memory, CPU detail can be found by running DxDiag if you don't know what they are). Keeping drivers up-to-date is one recommendation (although there are times there is a problem with a new driver and a game but that would be a problem many players would get).

Yes, I agree that is the first step if you have mods installed - the OP does not mention mods but having been in tech support for a mod team I'm used to players asking for help but not providing any details but the briefest description of the error let along technical specifications of the system they use When I've had problems with mods they tend to never allow the game to start. I use Aslain's mod pack and haven't had a problem with it although I've not used the IJN flags but the Historical Proportional flags in the same area (but without the IJN flag being selected) .

If this happens frequently as you seem to imply it;s either time to 'tune up' whatever you're using or to replace it. Frequent computer freezes are not a good sign. I presume this happens regardless of the game mode - so if you ever play randoms then it happens then as well?

The player wasn't pink at the start of the clip when they fired at you. If they continued to fire at you after they went pink then that is when the team damage is reflected back on them. Posting a video where the name of the team damager is against forum rules as it's "naming and shaming".

I bought it expecting to crew it with a German BB captain but it needs a European captain - I do have a 10 point one of those ready (or the 19 point captain I have for the Blys/Friesland)..... I watched a review from Notser but that was 9 months old and it was a TIV then aso.....

As Altsak has posted - you fired DWTs (Deep Water Torpedoes) at the enemy DD despite the fact that DWTs can't hit DDs and they continued after you had been taken out and hit a friendly. The marker that Atlsak mentions is only a guide to where to fire torps if the target continues at the same speed and direction. It's possible that the ship may slow down or turn towards you - in which case you can fire the torps 'short'. One thing I saw from your gameplay was that you spend too much time aiming torps when there were enemy ships including DDs nearby and you should have been firing your guns at them while waiting for the correct heading to fire the torps. Even when playing other classes you should target enemy DDs even 'chip' damage can help over time to take them out of the battle. Edited: Typo - spend not send

I'd like more operations in the rota - we've got less now than before the CV rework!

This thread is proof that you should not start a thread when off your medication.

Please keep us up-to-date on the progress of this - it's riveting.
